I don't know for sure if he is.. he isn't on the list..

I didn't want to leave him out if he was going to show up though.

Nice write up, Jon.


Leaving tomorrow morning. My exams are finally done, thank God.

I have a question for Mr. Krolewicz...

Don't all these cars need to drive on the street from track to track? How does that GTP car drive from track to track? That can't possibly be street legal.

I'm guessing that as long as you don't get pulled over it's "street legal".

And so it begins.

I am off to Ohio to pick up the Mongoose GTP.

(And a little birdie told me that Leh and Greg are almost to Chi-town to stop by AMS for some last-min tweaks)

My money is on Ron this year, unless it rains a lot... Then we'll see a 3-peat <yawns>

Good luck Jon! Will you be giving updates from the road?

I will be giving updates from the road (as much as I can)

www.racerjon.com/onelap07/intro.html (not up yet though)

I too think Ron will be tough to beat. Danny doesn't seem to be on the list, and I think that's the car/driver that could probably give him the best run. Unless he breaks Ron will be tough to beat. (Unless Leh doesn't break, and then I mean what I said in the write-up)

John, it's sad to hear that you weren't able to get the car together and that the Porsche fell through as well.

Yep, I picked up a ride.. we thinks the brake compound is too soft.. good things we have lots of spare pads.

This is turning out to be nutty.. one of the Subarus seemed to break already, Adee (Viper thing) left on a trailer, and Whitis (Noble) was broke when we left Autobahn..

Smith is flying, Luke and Leh are on the heels.

Check out www.boxer4racing.com for updates on my progress. (and video and pictures of flaming/sparking brakes.)

Sure looks like its wet there... here are the weather radar maps as of this morning. Certainly AWD weather and should change the finishing positions quite a bit!
